Commission.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burdens, and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC or Commission)
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collections.
Comments are requested concerning:
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and ways to
further reduce the information
collection burden on small business
concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. No person shall be subject to

any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid OMB
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before April 22,
2016. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should
advise the contact listed below as soon
as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to
Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email to PRA@
fcc.gov and to Nicole.Ongele@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information about the
information collection, contact Nicole
Ongele at (202) 418–2991.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–0496.
Title: ARMIS Operating Data Report.
Report Number: FCC Report 43–08.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 53 respondents; 53
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 139
hours for those that have not applied for
conditional forbearance; 35 hours for
those that have received conditional
forbearance.
Frequency of Response: Annual
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 219 and 220
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 2,271 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Ordinarily questions of a sensitive
nature are not involved in the ARMIS
Report 43–08. The Commission
contends that areas in which detailed
information is required are fully subject
to regulation and the issue of data being
regarded as sensitive will arise in
special circumstances only. In such
circumstances, respondents may request
materials or information submitted to
the Commission be withheld from
public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The information
contained in FCC Report 43–08 has
helped the Commission fulfill its
regulatory responsibilities. Automated
reporting of these data greatly enhances
the Commission’s ability to process and
analyze the extensive amounts of data
PO 00000

provided in the reports. Automating and
organizing data submitted to the
Commission facilitate the timely and
efficient analysis of revenue
requirements, rates of return and price
caps, and provide an improved basis for
auditing and other oversight functions.
Automated reporting also enhances the
Commission’s ability to quantify the
effects of policy proposals. The
Commission has granted all carriers
forbearance from many of the
requirements of ARMIS 43–08
conditioned on approval of a data
retention compliance plan and
continued submission of certain ARMIS
43–08 data related to access lines in
service to customers. Of the nine
holding companies/affiliated carrier
groups currently subject to ARMIS 43–
08, six have requested and received
conditional forbearance. Of the
remaining three holding companies/
affiliated carrier groups, one has
requested conditional forbearance, and
we anticipate that the other two may do
so in the future.
